I my research about data loading and the data model, I have come
across may interesting things.
There are also some questions that I have not been able to answer.
1) In entitymodel.xml files I find reference id-ne.
<field name="partyIdTo" type="id-ne"></field>
What does id-ne mean?
Since ofbiz was designed to work with lost common market databases, we
can not use a specific database data type in the entitymodel file,
instead with use a set of type that should be mapped to underlying databse .
look at mapping files at framework/entity/fieldtype
for example : with a postgresql database the id-ne is mapped to
VARCHAR(20) according to framework/entity/fieldtype/fieldtypepostgres.xml
<field-type-def type="id-ne" sql-type="VARCHAR(20)" java-type="String"/>
2) in the seed data for the accounting application there are
references to BILL_FROM_VENDOR and many other roleTypeIds
<entity-engine-xml>
<!-- The main Company Internal Organization -->
<Party partyId="Company" partyTypeId="PARTY_GROUP"/>
<PartyGroup partyId="Company" groupName="Your Company Name Here"/>
<PartyRole partyId="Company" roleTypeId="BILL_FROM_VENDOR"/>
Where are these defined? Is there a place where the valid list of
roleTypeIds get loaded.
in general type data should be found in <Component_name>TYpeData.xml
under data directory for each componenet, since this is related to party
you should find BILL_FROM_VENDOR in
applications/party/data/PartyTypeData.xml
3) There are other TypeIds that seem to have values that might mean
things in code
<PartyContactMechPurpose partyId="Company" contactMechId="9000"
contactMechPurposeTypeId="PAYMENT_LOCATION" fromDate="2000-01-01
00:00:00.000"/>
Is there some place where the uses of these types are documented?
Sorry I don't know !
Where loaded in the seed data?
ContactMechTypePurpose data is also defined in
applications/party/data/PartyTypeData.xml
If I change this to contactMechPurposeTypeId="PAY_LOCATION"will this
cause problems for code.
technically no if you define a new contactMechPurposeType PAY_LOCATION
You may use and IDE search function to find the data you want :-)
